Discoveries in the Attic Deme of Ikaria, 1888

Excavation reports from the ASCSA (American School of Classical Studies in Athens) excavations in Athens, Greece. Parts 1 and 7 include text, edition, and translation of inscriptions with extensive commentary. Part 2 examines in detail an archaic stele of Aristeon, a slab of marble with a bas relief of a warrior in the style of the “Warrior of Marathon” housed in the Central Museum of Athens. Part 3 reviews the “choregia” or inscriptions detailing the sponsors of dramatic productions in Athens. It includes transcriptions, editions, translations, and commentaries that give valuable insight into the funding, production, and judging of Attic drama. Parts 4, 5, and 6 detail the excavation history, topography, and architectural remains of the Ikarian dig. Part 8 describes the sculptures found. The site report includes photographs, plates, and tables and gives a thorough picture of the material culture of Classical Ikaria.
